21 fighters are buried in a mass grave. Of these, 19 Red Army soldiers (privates), two sergeants and one junior sergeant. Their names, dates of birth and death are known. Almost every last name has the wording "died in battle." Mostly it is 1942, but there are a few in 1941. The year of the monument's construction could not be found. I assume that this is 1965, when there was a massive campaign across the country to open monuments, museums and memorial complexes dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the Victory in the Great Patriotic War. I like the monument, I just want to make a comment about the painting. Sculptures cannot be painted in different colors! This spoils the composition and worsens its perception. It should be plain. Gray, white, bronze, but plain. The wreath held by the soldier should be the same color as the entire sculpture. This is a monument, not a decoration! I will be glad if they hear me and paint it in the same tone next time.
